how do you keep your marriage intact?

[Mguy]

10 years and still ok for the following reasons.

1. Don't make little problems big. Usually, mga topaks nya, pinapaliban ko na lang at di ko iniipon.

2. Never argue about money.

3. Give each other your own space and time. Masusuya lang kayo kung palagi na lang kayo dikit ng dikit sa lahat ng lakad.

4. Raise up interesting and entertaining kids. Kapag boring ang kids, boring rin family life mo.

5. Sounds corny but always build up and maintain your sense of humor. Do something crazy for him/her once in a while.

6. Have ***.

Mahirap mag advice but I can share some good points based on my 10 yrs
experience as married.
No. 1. Respect each other – mahaga ito, kapag ito ang nawala wala nang
pupuntahan ang relasyon.
No. 2. Magbigayan – give and take as many would say. hindi palaging ikaw,
hindi palaging siya. Hindi nasusukat sa palaging pagbibigay ang pagmamahal
sa isa’t isa. Kapag umabuso ang isa sa inyo, wala na ring magandang pupuntahan
ang relasyon.
No. 3. Swallow your pride - as always hindi palagi, when problems arise, look
for the solution as your first priority and not to look where it came from. After
you’ve solved it that’s the time to look back and think why those things happened
- not while solving it.
No. 4. Have *** regularly hehe – again not your preferred time, not her preferred
moment. Talk about it just like when you’re still **** during those days.

6. if the fight is serious and she starts to cry, tone it down or better yet say "sorry" (it does not mean you surrender, it only means "cease fire").

What would motivate 2 people to stay married?

From observation, there is no better motivation than money.

rich people would rather stay legally married even if they freakin' hate each other.

hehe

We're only running into our 2nd year of blissful marriage, so I don't have a lot of knowledge to impart, but I can tell you what is really helping a lot...

MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE you are marrying the right person. I can't stress that enough. I'm sure that should be common sense, but I've seen too many relationships end because of incompatibilities and the couple's refusal to work things out.

That said, I KNOW i'm with the right person. Almost 3 years together, a year and 3 months married...not one fight. I live each day to please her and remind her EVERY single day how special she is and how damned lucky I am to be with her. I could go on, but who'll take me seriously? I could bust a Tom Cruise and start jumping on couches, hehe.

It did take me a while to find her her tho, and a LOT of broken hearts...











I know, I know...I'll check in after a few years....hehe. So far so good tho.

been married for almost two years (June 05) so far so good. basta hinahayaan ko sya na gawin nya gusto nyang gawin at ginagawa ko ang gusto nyang gawin ko dapat hindi nawawala ang humor sa inyong pagsasama. there was one time na nagka inisan kami isang umaga nung papasok kami ng ofis kasi medyo matagal syang maligo at magbihis. Inis na inis ako kasi coding kami kaya dapat maaga kaming pumasok, so habang nasa fx kami di kami nagkikibuan, but then i realized na dapat di ako nainis kasi alam ko na matagal talagang maligo at magbihis ang mga babae. bumulong ako sa kanya na pag di pa nya ako kinibo uutot ako sa loob ng fx, e di pa rin nya ako kinikibo, inis na inis pa din sya sa akin so umutot ako, bigla kaming nagtawanan kaya ang sama ng tingin sa amin ng mga pasahero, kaya ngayon pag may samaan kami ng loob sasabihin ko lang na uutot ako, ok na kami ulit
